If you thing the monsoon humidity is bad, try Alabama. If you think Alabama is bad, try Houston or New Orleans. Don't get me wrong, desert heat will kill you with a quickness, but the deep South's humidity makes being outside far more miserable.

I have to agree, somewhat. I went back to Alabama for 4-days and I thought to myself... GET ME OUTTA HERE!!!! Get back to MI, a nice 72 degrees. Much better, I think I will stay for a little while.

Granted the record breaking temps didn't help any. But the humidity magnifies horridly. I pitied anyone without A/C in their ride. Or those with leather seats. I pity me. lol.

Hell, just walking from the house to the garage (about 20 feet) almost required a change of clothes from sweating. That humidity is nuts! lol... I remember looking at a friends Mustang and we popped the hood for a sec. I look over at him a few minutes later and he is soaked! Sweat, dripping off his face and everything. WTF! You don't want to do shiznit in that type of weather, it just drains you. Ugh!

Been out West a few times, hot as hell, but I didn't feel drained. If I had to choose I'd choose East. Earthquakes, scorpions, and Paris Hiltons I fear more than hurricanes, tornadoes, and spiders.

Yes, but for every bad aspect of life out here, there are always the positive aspects. NO hurricanes or Tornadoes, no quakes (Here in Arizona), nice 70 degree weather in the Winter, In-N-Out Burger, no Toll-ways, and lest we forget....NO RUST!!!!

MUD guard??? I hope to hell you dont mean the black plastic air deflector screwed to the bottom of the front bumper cover. That is NOT a good idea, and your car could overheat at speed because of insufficiant flow over the radiator. Its there for a reason.

With the big slots in it? No, I didn't remove that. And you'll be happy to know my car does not overheat, even when it does get to 110 degrees outside.

Ummm... no. there is a black plastic spoiler on the bottom of the bumper cover, and it deflects air up through those slots. if you removed it, i would suggest putting it back on. Or dont. Whatever. if the car doesnt oveheat, then... by all means. I'm just saying its a risk that i wouldnt be willing to take.

shiznit, somone get him a picture please.

I was wondering when somebody was going to bring that up!! Yeah, what he said!! That little lip is VERY important!! If it isnt overheating now, dont push it, it will!! No pictures from me, I am in Pittsburgh at school.
